Swing-A-Way

What's an awesome summer without a vintage ice crusher for Susan's cocktails? Susan and her Aunt Eileen spent a Saturday going to yard sales. Upon first sight Aunt Eileen said I'm going to buy this for you and then bargained it down to less than ten dollars.

Susan's Swing-A-Way ice crusher's got a pretty gnarly grindy blade thing under the hood, Susan thought she heard a cube scream as she shoved it down there and cranked it into little frozen pebbles for her alcoholist pleasure.

We had one of those ice crushers and it came in very useful when I was pregnant with my son as I had constant cravings for ice. And so my husband would be crunching it up for me in that little gadget at all hours of the day and night. I suspect it may have been him that "lost" it !!
